We Value – We Recognise - We Believe - We Are Committed

We value and recognise the work and teachings of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in our community.

We believe in building partnerships and establishing strong connections with our wider community.

We respectfully raise awareness and knowledge of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ histories and cultures, including an understanding about the injustices which continue to impact on Australia’s First Peoples since colonisation.

We are committed to ensuring the contributions we make to reconciliation are powerful and valuable.

We believe that the future wellbeing of all Australians depends how we recognise The Rights of Indigenous Peoples to foster respectful and positive relationships  between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and non-Indigenous people.

We recognise our role and responsibility to provide programs that are culturally safe for all children and families, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and families.

We are committed to providing a service that will support all children, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children, to thrive in an Early Childhood setting while instilling knowledge and pride of their cultures and community.  

We are committed to being a place that offers genuine support for families and the community – including our local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community – in regard to education, social support, health and employment opportunities to provide opportunities for positive outcomes.
